The Executive Department of the federal government is com- prised of the President and his Cabinet. Because it is physically impossible for the President to supervise and direct more than one mil- lion persons engaged in the civil and military duties of executive and administrative work, he is aided by his cabinet members who act as his chief lieutenants. Likewise in school, because our principal is unable to direct and supervise every student in his scholastic work and extra activities, he is aided by the faculty. ( 13 )

The most important elective office in the world is that of President of the United States. When the people looked for a person to hold this office for the first time, all eyes turned toward George Washington, the great chieftain who had led armies to victory, and who had shown him- self a great statesman as well as a soldier. iffiCOTWI ©lilMlTrfllKH

FACULTY Th roughout the school year of 1937- ’38, our principal, Mr. R. B. Miller, act- ing as Chief Execu- tive, has capably su- pervised the entire governmental s t a ff in George Rogers Clark School, and un- der this capable supe r v i s i o n many outstanding accom- plishments have been added. The cabinet — the members of our faculty — served as able assistants to Mr. Miller in rendering valuable services, not only as teachers, but also as spon- sors of classes and various extra-curricular activities. Just as each cabinet member is the head of his own specific division of the gov- ernment, so in our school, each teacher is the sponsor of a club or class, besides being a co- worker in a certain department of the school — Arts, Science, English, Languages, or Math- ematics. There are thirty-seven cabinet members in the junior and senior high schools, and all have willingly cooperated with the students to bring to a close this happy and successful year. Under the competent leadership of this group of advisers, many of the ambitions of our students have been auspiciously attained, and many of Clark’s fondest hopes realized. MRS.
